On words and literature.

They are sustenance:
Food, water, shelter, sleep.
Words are everything.
They are all you could ever need
In this place, this world, this realm
Of writers and artists
Of thinkers and dreamers
Of believers

And we are, we are the ones who
Will move the world, shake it.
Fix it, or break it.
Our ideas and works are the power
They are all we need
To build cities
Or watch civilizations burn.
"We are the music makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams..."
